Notes / Commercial Description:
The name Schild Brau means essentially 'Schild Beer' in German. This is our flagship brew, a microbrew done in the style of the special beers of Munich. This beer is brewed in the style of a Vienna Lager.

Our beer uses these same malts to attain a perfect balance between malty sweetness and a firm bitterness.

Crackery bready malts, graham, and toast in the aroma. Not much in the way of hops, but this may not be the freshest example. Still pleasant, balanced aroma. Slightly sweet. Clean lager character. A touch herbal.

Pours clear light copper with a small white head. Ok lacing and good retention.

Impressive amber appearance in color, substantial clarity, head in the 1/3" range, white. Aroma hit those malt sweet notes in the Vienna/Oktoberfest vein.

Taste was smooth, but enough malt to chew on. I know its not down for style, but a little more hops would have been nice, not overly done, but to kick some life into it. Nutty and caramel, the regular stuff is here, could use more carbonation and/or hops though to keep it from seeming too sticky.
